How to price liquid tanker loads
I'm getting requests for liquid tanker loads from CA to NJ, but I have no idea what the going rate is or should be. I'm a dryvan and flatbed broker for Landstar and I've always declined any opportunities for tanker freight because I rarely get requests for it. Today I had a regular dryvan customer ask for a price to haul 44k# of non-haz, liquid, ISO, Kosher washed tank from CA to NY (near Syracuse, not on the island). I have no idea what rate I should be offering a carrier for this, although I'd say I'm an expert on van and flabed freight. I appreciate any guidance you can provide. -PW
